Is Google seriously just run by AI at this point? I imagine at some point up the middle management chain it’s just a layer of AI making decisions that no one has the authority to override.

Similar to how Amazon warehouse workers say that they’re working for an algorithm at this point making hiring/firing decisions.

I'm curious if single threaded* games/applications that were CPU limited when the P4 originally came out run better on the 13900k with the same code.

That was my impression from games at the time, that they were coded with an expectation that clock speeds would keep going up in the future. But they didn't and the games probably run just as bad now as they did before.

Works fine on Wine, FWIW. I've even seen Wine specific fixes mentioned in the patch notes for foobar2000.

That's true for new installs at least. But Android won't let you install an update to an existing app with a different signing key, it'll error out with something generic.

I'm starting to wonder if the random Google account lockouts are caused by account hacks, where the account proceeds to be used by spammers and other nefarious people. Has anyone here that has been randomly locked out of their Google account like this been using 2FA?

It still sucks that Google has no real appeal process for this.

Don't they host their own ads? Something I wish more websites would do instead of letting ad networks stomp all over the page with whatever Javascript/Flash/viruses they want.

Set up a camera to also watch for the wake light, profit.

On the other hand it's not as easy to adjust brightness on desktop monitors so I appreciate having the option either way.

Software brightness control on desktop monitors is something I've wanted for a while. Closest thing I've seen is a monitor with a built in light sensor that has the option of auto adjusting independent of the computer.

A grantable permission would be nice. "This site would like to modify your clipboard"

Are there areas of the world with no light pollution where you see anything remotely like this with the naked eye? Any parts of the Milky Way?

You'll notice whenever you get the banner to add a phone number for 2FA, it says "add your phone number for additional security and more"

I believe if you disable the Google app the search box will go away. This is just the app that handles searches, you can keep Google Play Services and other things.
